Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Comparative politics usually means comparing one country or policy with another, or with many others. But what about the comparisons that policy makers themselves make? This course seeks to understand international and comparative politics and policy making as based in the situated 'doings and sayings' of human beings in interaction with each other. We pay particular attention to international institutions, as well as to domestic contexts in which some international or comparative dimension is present.The course begins by exploring the worlds of the activist, the public official and the elected representative, and goes on to consider the core practices of participation in meetings and the production and circulation of documents. It investigates just how comparisons are made, reviewing associated concepts of learning and translation.The course is taught in 4 blocks, each of 2 x 3-hour seminars (8 seminars in all). Seminar discussion is based on the close reading of ethnographic case studies, and part of each class will be devoted to supporting students to develop and carry out case study research of their own.
